Well, it's not so bad. Firstly, she could actually sing betetr and surprise us all. I'm hoping it's nerves or not being used to singing live. If it's the same, general consensus is that people love her enough and how she comes across as well as the actual recorded version of the song to give her high marks. There's also the Diaspora contingent in some countries that will help. A BBC poll reckons 5th place in the finals and I have to admit that she's so lovely she deserves it (and anyway, Eurovision is never really about actual music ;-) ).However, if she were to put in a solid performance then I think we could count on a lot betetr. Although pop music is not my thing, and even though I never supported sickening Hayko, I'd be very happy with a win for Armenia. It's not a bad song, she's a great ambassador for Armenia, and if she can actually do a near perfect performance we can be proud. If she can't, well, yes, it does highlight the need for radical changes in the way the Eurovision national contest is organized and decided here.Actually, I think it should be anyway. Basically, multiple artists with different songs and singing live. Just choosing whoever gets chosen in the annual local music awards (which is controversial anyway) is not the right approach, in my opinion. Still, although I am really disappointed in her live performance, if she does have talent enough to win then I'm still saying Go! Sirusho!But I really hope she can sort out those vocals, not that this appears to play too much on the actual voting. Was playing with an online Eurovision voting simulator today. Basically it works on the basis of which countries have closer links with the other and at the same time, takes into consideration the influence of Diasporas.Which is why Armenia gave 12 points to Russia last year and I suppose will do the same this year too. The one weird anomaly is why Georgia and Turkey awarded Hayko 12 points last year of course. Well, perhaps not. Neighboring countries usually vote for each other the exception, of course, being Armenia. ;-)Basically, Eurovision is as much about existing international relations between countries as much as it is about the music although some exceptions happen from time to time if an act really sets itself apart from the pack (usually through some kind of novelty as was the case with Finland).

I don’t want to make big fuzz about the so called<a href="http://vwgisreg.com"> pcrotasd</a> for Armenia for the Eurovision but I get scared thinking about what they wear thinking when they decided that Armenian is best represented by a CLOWN ? …………. A group of people are sitting and thinking …hey I know let’s have a clown for Armenia ? And the funny thing is that they ho represent Armenia don’t even complain ? Imagine Israel or France being depicted as Clowns ? But this is what more and more I expect from leaders of all spheres in Armenia. We don’t have sophisticated leadership , no shroud people in Government destined to have a independent and strong country . Armenian is like a hungry dog ..it eats what the fxxx you give it ? Why can’t we have a country where a new pipeline goes from Armenia to Georgia and then to supply gas to Europe ? Why can’t we have a military possessing nuclear vepon ambition? So it can defend its people against a new Genocide in the near future. Why do we have leadership that is cruel and brutal against its citizens’ instead of educating them for the future and sealing everything it has to Russia? Russia which is a bully a wife beater a cruel and mean country which will one day like many times before abandon Armenia when it has had its fun ? Wear is the It sector in Armenia wear is the high tech companies that don’t need to rely on material needs but just brain and intelligence. Why doesn’t Armenian recognize Kosovo ? It should because Karabag need it? Why doesn’t Armenia create better relationship whit Georgia ? So they have the incentive to destroy Armenian heritage and instead respect them ? Why Why WHY ?

(This) one-sided and unreliable inofamrtion (about any people) after a long period of unchallenged time, would create hostility and hatred that would not be easily overcome.” (Cyrus Hamlin, co-founder of the American missionary college in Istanbul [Robert College], opining on anti-Turkish propaganda, late 19th-Century.) If anyone is familiar with the 1957 movie Twelve Angry Men (based on a television play, starring Henry Fonda and Lee J. Cobb later remade with Jack Lemmon and George C. Scott) you might remember how eleven jurors accepted at the outset the obvious guilt of the young man on trial, perpetuated by the race of the accused. The message of the film was that things are not always what they seem and the Henry Fonda character, through logic and facts, turned around the opinions of each of his co-jurors. Quite a task lay before him, since the other co-jurors were motivated by other factors instead of the pertinent one at hand (i.e., Justice), but ultimately truth prevailed as will inevitably occur one day with the Armenian genocide, once people put their prejudices aside, and look at the validity of the evidence offered on both sides. We are now in the first fifteen minutes of the movie, and the Turks are in the Henry Fonda role and the Armenians are in the Lee J. Cobb role. (The one difference in the way our play will work out is that most Armenians will never accept that there was no genocide as the genocide has become too much a reason for the Armenians' existence, and facts become irrelevant, or conveniently altered.)Innocent until proved guilty beyond reasonable doubt should be the legal principle at work here, and ideally it should not be up to the Turks to prove that they did not commit genocide but for Armenians and their Turk-hating supporters to prove that the Turks did. This trial has already historically taken place, as you will soon see and the resulting acquittal hasn't made any difference in the eyes of those who will condemn the Turks, regardless of the facts.(*Regarding impartiality: this refers to most of the supporting documents presented on this site, particularly those from Western sources since anyone with a Western background can safely be assumed not to have been raised with a love for Turks; after all, does the Western society exist that favors a glowing image of Turkey? My own writings [I'm Holdwater, by the way; glad to meet you] are often not impartially written however, if you can prove to me that there definitely was an Armenian genocide, you would find me changing my tune pretty fast. Can you say the same about yourself, if you begin to be convinced what you have been led to believe all this time has mainly been a lie?) http://yfqqwen.com [url=http://uejeoohy.com]uejeoohy[/url] [link=http://vyvfnls.com]vyvfnls[/link]

I think this is the the only realistic rerpot card available each year on the governments of the world. The CPI measures domestic and public sector and once again highlights how poorly most countries' governments go about their business and how no region is immune to the perils of corruption.
